Lf Long Term generalist vfx artist

I am working on several games at the moment and need VFX made.

For the first game I would have you work on I need: combat effects; sword slashes, trails, impacts, hit sparks magic; staff casts, projectiles, AoE, channels other effects/items; auras, buffs and status effects, pickups, ambient environment stuff

You will need to be versatile, be able to work in different styles and sometimes build a whole effect set around one weapon or ability rather than a single one off. You have to be able to come up with the look on your own as I am not that creative, so if you expect a reference board for every little effect do not apply for this.

I will give you a brief and a rough idea of what the effect is for and you take it from there. Effects should come with their own textures/flipbooks, sensible timing and readability in actual gameplay, and be optimised for live servers unless I say otherwise.

There is no fixed team, I own all the games 100%, every other dev is also a contractor.

Not full time but I need someone consistent and reachable. Portfolio required, show multiple styles if you have them, and video or gifs in engine rather than stills only. (I will not join discord servers)

I can pay hourly or per effect/set/work, no upfront on the first few works, willing to sign any sort of contract.
